I will never stop working for you.
All Washingtonians have a right to fair wages and just treatment at work. Our leaders must hold employers accountable when they fail to protect their workers.
After hearing of bad business practices at two Yakima orchards, I stepped in. Together with the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries (L&I), we uncovered that hard-working farmworkers were consistently underpaid.
I filed a lawsuit against the orchard owners, resulting in more than 400 workers being compensated $500,000 in back wages and interest.
I will continue to stand up for all workers in our state. Moreover, I will fight to ensure that all Washingtonians are paid every dollar they are owed, including interest on the wages they were denied.
As Governor, I will work with state partners like L&I to keep holding employers accountable.
